An elegant white villa was accompanied by a sleek musical fountain at its entrance with all sides of its walls surrounded by lush green plants.
Here was where all the female recruits who would be participating in the Recruit Tournament resided.
Female recruits from all continents gathered to stay together in this building. The building provided a quiet environment compared to the usual recruits’ stations. With the military department putting extra effort for the female recruits, it ensured that they would have provided a more elegant touch to the female soldiers’ residence.
The villa was not as quiet today as it used to be.
Six blond, white-skinned male soldiers from Europe stood by the musical fountain with their eyes on the recruits from the East Asian region.



Wow, I suppose the rumors are true.
said one of the European male soldiers with a bit of surprise in his tone.
Our opponent tomorrow, the pilots of the New East Asian region consisted of a group of women? It seems that East Asia had really given up on climbing up the ranks of aerial combat.

The exaggerated tone with a bit of banter made the other European recruits to burst into laughter.
Lin Jiaxuan was in a bad mood, or rather she was in a bad mood ever since she got to know their first matched up opponent.
The first matchup that the East Asian Aerial combat recruits were up against was the super-popular recurring champion – the European recruits!
Lin Jiaxuan did a background check on the European team and after looking through their profiles, any remaining confidence that was left in her was crushed instantly.
Despite them only being recruits, all of them came from the top airborne battalion known in the European region – The Napoleon Aerial Combat Team.
Five of the pilots were from Napoleon Aerial Combat Team third-line squadron, led by William Napoleon from the second-line squadron. There were already rumors going around that the first-line squadron was interested in taking him in.
The Napoleon Aerial Combat Team had a very strong reputation in the Federation and they even held the title as the Federation’s strongest aerial combat team for many years.
After the emergence of the eccentric team
Trash Team
, Napoleon Aerial Combat Team streak of titles held for being the number one aerial combat team of the Federation was stripped.
Although there was no longer the title as the strongest team, this flying squad with a glorious history remains as a force not to be underestimated.


Any pilot who was able to join the Napoleon aerial combat team would have felt the highest form of glory. On the other hand, not many people would think that joining Trash team would be able to empower them with any sense of achievement.
Napoleon aerial combat team was a squadron that boasted pride and history. They had taken in almost every highly ranked recruit with outstanding aerial combat ability.
Some pilots may be aces in certain squadrons, but it didn’t mean that it would be easy for them to join the Napoleon Aerial Combat Team, as it was hard to even just meet the entry requirements.
It was safe to say that if an individual were to be selected to join the first line squadron, then the person was an ace among aces.
William Napoleon gained mass interest from the first line squadron within his one year of joining the Napoleon Aerial Combat Team. His ability was so impressive that one did not even have to see any recording of his combat skills to acknowledge his capabilities.
Lin Jiaxuan once came across such a recording and with only one video, destroyed the last bit of fantasy and confidence left in her.
She had never expected that she would be in charge of leading the East Asian team in this recruit tournament as she knew that she wasn’t the best pilot among the recruits in the Air Force.
However, she was still sent to participate in this tournament. This means that she was sent with the intention to lose.
It must be him! This evil plan surely must be his! 
Lin Jiaxuan clenched her fists hard and shadow-boxed the person in her mind. She then noticed there was a person in front of her.
The person had a thin face with sharp sparkling eyes and a well-built body, which created an unusually mighty silhouette.



Dear beautiful lady.
William Napoleon took a gentleman’s bow and said in a polite manner,
I come from the romantic French continent. It was never in my interest to destroy this beautiful lady in front of me, and thus I have come with a small proposal.

Lin Jiaxuan glanced at William Napoleon silently. This guy looks like the long-time actor Brad Pitt.


For women to possess inferior aerial combat skills compared to us men is an indisputable fact.
William Napoleon picked himself up and straighten up his body.
I believe that you have impressive skills, but obviously it will not come close when compared to ours. When you are shot down by us, I’m sure that your confidence will be shot down too. By then, you will look incredibly disgraceful during your loss.

Lin Jiaxuan did not respond as everything that William Napoleon mentioned up to this moment were facts that couldn’t be refuted.

We from the Napoleon Aerial Combat Team are not only a battle machine, we also know how to appreciate beautiful things.
William Napoleon nodded with certainty,
Yes, in the words of the oriental people, this action of appreciation is known as ‘cherishing the flowers’. So, if you few beautiful ladies spend a good night with us, we can provide some handicap during the tournament so that you don’t lose in a more disgraceful way.

Several European recruits who were with William Napoleon winked at several of the female soldiers around Lin Jiaxuan. The beautiful oriental women that were notoriously known to be exceptionally pretty. When combined with their delicate skin, they were on par or even better than some western beautiful women.
As soldiers, these female pilots had a body shape that was more outstanding than that of an ordinary oriental woman.
They had heard a lot of stories about the East where there were a lot of women who were willing to give their bodies for the country sake.
Lin Jiaxuan’s face instantly turned pale. Where did this suggestion come from? It’s an utter humiliation!


So what do you think?
William Napoleon smiled,
The goal for the East Asian troops participating in this competition this time should be to lose but not in a way that is too disgraceful, am I right?




Excuse me.

A voice that was not crisp interrupted William Napoleon’s speech.
Everyone in front of the fountain looked towards the source of the voice. The appearance of this person surprised everyone who was at around three meters away from him, as no one would expect that he would speak out from that distance.
Qin Fen! 
Lin Jiaxuan’s heart trembled. At Qinghai, he only brought Thunderstorm as his weapon and insisted on hiking through the dangerous terrain alone. That majestic posture of his.

Lin Jiaxuan had seen a lot of people with stronger spirits compared to Qin Fen. But few people shared the same aura as him, an aura that told everyone he was able to lift the world on his shoulder even if the sky fell onto him.
Qin Fen went straight to Lin Jiaxuan through the crowd and reached out to hold her hand.
For a moment, Lin Jiaxuan’s body couldn’t help but felt a chill and, as if a deer was hidden in her chest, her heartbeat increases tremendously.

Just a moment.

William Napoleon swung his shoulders and blocked Qin Fen’s way. He shared a similar height with Qin Fen and both men met their eyes on a similar level.

As an individual, you should be more polite.
William Napoleon stared at Qin Fen while his eyes brimmed with a little pride,
Didn’t you see that I am chatting with this beautiful lady?



Qin Fen frowned as it had been quite a while since he had encountered such a self-righteous person. He extended his hands towards William Napoleon’s shoulder and gave him a push.
With days of relentless training, even without activating Dragon Elephant Prajna Art, Qin Fen was still able to display such astonishing power.
This push launched William Napoleon three meters away from Qin Fen. If he had not used his skills to stabilize himself, perhaps this push would bring him even further than ten meters away.

This guy is getting in the way.

In Qin Fen’s mind, he just wanted to pass on his scheduled martial arts practice to Lin Jiaxuan as soon as possible. After mumbling his dissatisfaction towards William Napoleon, he pulled Lin Jiaxuan by her hand and picked up the pace in walking away from the crowd.
William Napoleon glanced toward Qin Fen and almost instantly, the other European recruits surrounded Qin Fen.

Hero who saves the damsel in distress?
William Napoleon walked towards Qin Fen.
You are also an East Asian recruit, aren’t you? Have you not heard our conversation? For the sake of your East Asian…


Conversation about? I didn’t hear it.
Qin Fen shook his head.
I have no interest in your matter. I only came here to look for her.

William Napoleon’s face became stiff. He felt provoked by the reply. He did not hear the conversation? This could also be understood as ignoring the conversation.

The oriental language had too many ways to be interpreted.
William Napoleon was forced to think more thoroughly about the current situation. The woman that Qin Fen intended to take away was the woman that he was interested in. There was no way he was going to let Qin Fen take her away from him.

You are looking for her?
William Napoleon watched Qin Fen, with both his eyes filled with alertness.
Are you also from the East Asian Air Force sent to participate in the Recruit Tournament?

Lin Jiaxuan whispered in the ear of Qin Fen to explain what had happened between them.
Soon the situation was clearly explained. Lin Jiaxuan realized that she was acting weirdly. Why would I tell Qin Fen about this stuff?

This means I’m starting to depend on him! 
With the thought in her mind, Lin Jiaxuan turned her eyes to Qin Fen’s hand which was holding hers.
William Napoleon looked at Qin Fen’s seemingly increasing sour face and took an intuitive step back. This man gave him a very dangerous feeling.
Qin Fen never expected that the European Air Force recruits would have made such a request. Although I don’t belong to the East Asian Air Force, would I still be able to consider myself a man if I were to watch our East Asian female soldier be bullied by foreigners?

Qin Fen stared at William Napoleon with his brain spinning fast on ways to provoke the opponent to fight him.
William Napoleon felt chills when he was being stared at by Qin Fen. By Qin Fen’s single push, he knew that this man who appeared out of nowhere had tremendous hidden strength. If this man were to be serious, surely even by outnumbering him wouldn’t ensure a victory.

So… you want to exchange fists with me?
William Napoleon said timidly,
Since everyone is from the air force, I do not think that we should resort to such savage methods. If you are still unhappy, you can try to beat me in aerial combat.

With William Napoleon’s words left unfinished, Qin Fen laughed. He smirked and proceeded to pull Lin Jiaxuan away.

Hey!
William Napoleon stepped forward.
Are you running away now?

Qin Fen had let go of Lin Jiaxuan’s hand and shook his head.
If you’re a man, then you shouldn’t bully women. I do not know if your brains are damaged, or if you came to provoke my teammates before the tournament so that they are unable to do their best. But as a man, walk the talk. Let’s go to the stimulation room and see what you got.

William Napoleon smiled very happily.
Not even the organizing committee of this Recruit Tournament had known that he was no longer a second-line squadron member of the Napoleon Aerial Combat Team but had been promoted to the first-line squadron.
In other words, William Napoleon was now the ace among aces, an outstanding excellence pilot in the Federation’s Air Force. In the future, he might defeat
Trash Team
and regain the number one spot for the Napoleon Aerial Combat Team.
In the history of Napoleon Aerial Combat Team, there was never a person who made it to the first line squadron within a year. With his great aerial combat talent, he had his captain, a third-year lieutenant general train him and held the belief that they would defeat
Trash Team
, reclaiming the throne as the number one aerial combat team.

Okay! Hey, East Asian recruit, I accept your challenge!
William Napoleon raised his head proudly and by accepting the challenge itself, illustrated his position.
Only the weak would challenge the strong.
Qin Fen did not contend for the upper hand of this exchange, but his face showed the distinct smile that he would have before each war.
With a faint smile, Qin Fen gave a calm look.
As a battle between men, why not let us gamble with something?


Gamble?
asked William Napoleon with some doubts. Is this East Asian person crazy? Has he not seen the list of participants yet?

What do you want to gamble?


How much do you have?
asked Qin Fen as both his index finger and middle finger gently wiggled.

Ten thousand.
William Napoleon was not very rich. In this era of martial strength, even members of the air force were also working hard to improve their strength in order to have better reflexes. Usually, they spend their money buying Reborn Pill, Mechanical Beasts, or even cheaper options such as the Berserker Pill, leaving them with not a lot of spare cash.

Oh?
Qin Fen’s eyebrows raised:
Let us gamble for ten thousand then.

William Napoleon smiled even more widely. Today, not only can I display my awesome combat skills in front of the beautiful lady, but I can also get ten thousand yuan at the same time. I’ve been trying to save money to buy better supplements recently, I never thought that someone would actually gift me the money.


Don’t go against him! This person is from the Napoleon aerial combat team, and ace among the ace pilots…
A female soldier shouted, anxiously.

Ace among the aces?
Qin Fen frowned while he looked at William Napoleon, who had a smile filled with pride.
The aerial combat simulation room here was a fully enclosed simulated cabin. The pressure in the cabin and various environments were fully replicated in this simulation, providing the utmost realism.
It was said that other than being able to literally kill someone, everything else was real in this stimulation.
William Napoleon deliberately placed the two planes at the same airport. He had already planned that no matter what fighter plane Qin Fen chose, the moment Qin Fen left the ground, he would be shot down instantly, without even a chance to fly properly in the air at all. In this direct way, he would be able to humiliate his opponent and let him know how big the gap between the two of them was.
Specter Fighter? 
William Napoleon was surprised by Qin Fen’s choice. He chose an agile plane. Most East Asian pilots were not used to this model. It may be fast but its handling is not good, making it one of the most difficult models to handle.
William Napoleon smiled confidently. Even if it’s the fast Specter Fighter I’m against, I’m still going to destroy him the moment he takes off!

When the signal light changed, William Napoleon danced his hands on the control panels like a pianist playing the piano.
Boom!

William Napoleon’s cabin suddenly felt a huge impact that almost sent him off his seat.
All the spectator pilots were all dumbfounded except for Lin Jiaxuan.
Even William Napoleon was dumbfounded. The person that was shot down was not Qin Fen, but William Napoleon.
In the quiet hall, Qin Fen’s voice echoed.
Are you an ace among aces? Sorry, I am a Trash that specializes in destroying aces among aces.
